World War 1 Trench Warfare Rules

Revisión de las Reglas de Juego de Guerra

Trench – World War 1 Trench Warfare Rules Trench is a set of World-War One wargame rules for divisional level grand-tactical engagements, or skirmish level trench raids. Both games are played on a modular trench layout using 6 x 12 inch segments of main trenches, communications trenches, cratered pieces of no-man’s land, and barbed wire section. The interchangeable trench segments are built up from two sheets of poliestireno, the lower of which provides a 1/2" fire step for figuras to stand on.

A table of point values for men and equipment is used to recruit 12 to 15 figure battalions for the divisional game, or individual officers, NCOs, and men for the trench raid game. The table lists varies heavy weapons and artillery pieces, and the crews needed to operate them. Divisional scale fighting factor losses are determined with the help of the Casualty Calculator, made up of three overlapping cardboard discs with adjustable shooter and target parameters which determine the actual losses. For each 50 fighting factors lost, one figure is removed from the target unit. In the trench raid game, casualties are diced for normally.

Trench is an easy to learn game of World-War One trench warfare which has inspired many players to build elaborate trench systems to fight over. The WW1 tank rules included in Trench cover the morale effect of tanks on enemy troops, mechanical reliability, ditching, visibility from within tanks, tank crew casualties, and the defence of immobilized vehicles, which may be an interesting game in itself.
